Get to work dryHaving previously only used semi-waterproof jackets for my commute and been impressed by the Rapha Race Cape for road riding I got the Hooded Rain Jacket hoping that it would be a good amalgamation of the two, and it has absolutely lived up to my expecations.
The high-vis details are nice and the extra length and the slightly looser sizing compared to the Race Cape works well day to day. I combine it with a long sleeve merino jersey for days when the temperature drops below 7-8 degrees C.

really waterproof!very functional, great fit. it has zippered side pockets for better usefulness off the bike. best hood design that can be worn under a helmet. this feature is worth the price. many of the hooded jackets out there try to cover your helmet with their hood, usually with an unusually large hood that just gets in the way or using gets awkward.

Get this jacket alreadyI purchased this jacket to replace an aging Rapha City Rain Jacket. So far it is everything you'd expect from Rapha. Fine fit, excellent water protection, nice styling and typical Rapha quality. About the only negative is that I prefer the bright pink accents on my previous jacket over the current muted black / reflective cuffs

Hi, looking for a gift for my bf. He lives in Key West, FL. It rains ferociously at times but never really drops below 65 degrees (with an average of 80). Will this jacket be too warm? What jacket do you recommend for a wet commute in a warm climate?

Asked by: Alohagirl

Hi, this jacket would be a good option for a wet commute in a warm climate. It is lightweight and packable, yet provides the needed water protection.

Hello, is this jacket as waterproof as the pro team race cape? The race cape seems to be your most waterproof jacket but the lack of pockets is quite a compromise.

Asked by: HelenJF

Hi, this jacket does not use the same fabric. It is also waterproof but is slightly less breathable than the Pro Team Race Cape.

Do I need to spray the DWR after a few uses? Then how often and what product do you recommend?

Asked by: Ikko

Hi, you do not need to re-spray the DWR after a few uses. You will need to do this after several washes and many uses. To do this you can use our Apparel Re-Proofer. The DWR restores the hydrophobic properties but the jacket will retain water-resistance even after this wears off.

The black doesn't appear to have the left arm detail and rear tag (bottom right ish) is that correct?. Further images would be helpful.

Asked by: NellyDeee

Hi, the black version of this jacket does have the bottom right reflective tag but this is black and grey rather than pink. It also has the arm cuff detailing. The underside of these cuffs is hi-vis pink.
